Peaty's Holeshot CO2 Tyre Inflator Kit - Black
If the hole in your tire is so big that sealant can't seal it, your tire will lose all air pressure and, most of the time, the tire bead will pop off the bead seat on the rim, creating air gaps all the way around the tire bead. As anyone who has set up tubeless tires before will know, getting enough air into the tire to pop the tire bead back onto this bead seat isn't easy, even when you're in the comfort of your home workshop, never mind out on the trail with a group of impatient mates - or worse - mid race.
A lot of people carry mini hand pumps with them, and they're great for re-inflating small amounts on the trail after slight pressure loss, but you'd need forearms like Popeye to re-seat your tire with one! Without doubt, the quickest and easiest way to get you back riding while out on the trail is with a CO2 inflator. Not only do they get you back up and riding again much quicker than a hand pump, they are much smaller and easy to carry with you on your ride.
